Armoured Core video update - watch the 8 min intro now! (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

Just thought it had been a while so updating you on where things are at with video stuff. The last post I made was the lengthy, over-dissertation-length script on the Armored (it always takes my entire being not to type "armoured" but them's the SEO breaks I guess) Core series, coming from the perspective of a relative newcomer/longtime Soulsborne fan. Ended up having to make a fair few changes to that script which pushed the actual video production back a bit, but rest assured work is progressing on it. 

When I said this was going to be my longest project yet I meant it—my Adobe Premiere timeline is saying this is going to be just shy of 1 hour 25 mins. Several videos' worth of work have already gone into this, and there's still some more to go! 

Your patience in this regard has been immensely appreciated. To show you what's to come, here's an unlisted link to the first eight or so minutes of the vid, laying out the context for the rest of the piece. I hope you enjoy it and that you're excited to see more!

Despite this project being huge and having a couple of other vids in the works as well (muuuch shorter ones on The Last of Us show and another on emulation), I've really been trying to make an effort this month to not let the work take over my life as much. Still working a lot, but trying to work on my sleep schedule and make sure I'm taking time to exercise and the like. Working better, not harder, I think is the phrase. 

I'm not sure how this will affect the frequency of output yet, but rest assured I thoroughly needed a bit of time with this, and I'm feeling much happier working on the projects as a result. This is a change I've seen a lot of people express a desire for me to make, and I'm in the very fortunate position to be able to do it, thanks directly to your continued support. I could not be more grateful, and I hope this happiness shows in the final product. You're all the best.

Thanks,

Hamish
